Membership

Founded in 1998, the Newport Beach Arts Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, is the fund-raising arm of the Newport Beach City Arts Commission. The Arts Commission and the Newport Beach Arts Foundation are dedicated to supporting the visual and performing arts in the City of Newport Beach.

The Foundation engages businesses, individuals and volunteers in activities to enrich community life throughout the year by supporting the Arts Commission and its cultural arts programming. In additional to the City Cultural Arts activities, the Foundation periodically hosts visits to museums, galleries, the theater and musical performances.

Members are encouraged to attend monthly meetings, and when possible, participate in Foundation fund-raising events. The Arts Foundation meets at 6:00 pm on the third Tuesday of each month at the Newport Beach Central Library, 1000 Avocado Avenue, Newport Beach.
